HUSQVARNA HUSQVARNA THREAD

[heimannm]

I'd swear that this morning when I looked there it read out of stock...

I have it on the way now, thanks.

Next issue, the nozzle/check valve in the carburetor is acting up. Carburetor is Walbro HDA, but I'm not sure which number designation. I found an HDA 87? parts list that calls out 503546901 but says the carburetor is for a 262. I'm guessing they are the same but would like an idea before I spend another $20 or so to get one.

It would be nice to have the Walbro number to expand the search but I can't find any part numbers on the Walbro website.

The 257 came with the HDA 120 carburetor. Late versions may have came with an HDA 144.

If the valve you are seeking is the tiny rubber disc under the outlet nozzle you could likely just cut one out of an old diaphragm with a hole punch.

This carburetor has the replaceable "cartridge" type check valve. I have a stock of the Walbro 86-523 kit but they don't help in this case.

Rust-Oleum Has a Husqvarna orange. I painted this 288 with it.

Good looking saw! I use the Husky Orange Rust-Oleum as well, and have had great results. Hard to beat for the price. Do you use any clear coat?

No, that was just the orange paint.

Just picked up this NOS NASCAR bar ... Now the decision if someone would rather have it as is for a collection, or if I should mount it on my 350 NASCAR version.... Decisions Decisions. Leaning towards putting it on the saw. It's a shelf queen anyways

Just purchased a 2100 cylinder for the 285CD. What is the best piston option? Doesn't look like a Meteor is available.

I was in the 257 again today to install the seal collar and replacement throttle rod, I can confirm it is an HDA120.

A little searching turns up 865781 as the Walbro PN for the nozzle check valve, Jack's has them for $3.00 each plus a fairly reasonable shipping charge so I ordered 5 pieces.

Are the little husky 35’s worth messing with at all all? I just aquired a real nice one.

The NOT MADE IN CHINA really stands out. Proline also has a Not made of Chineseium piston for about the same$. Wonder which is better?

Sometimes you just have to buy from them "lil red barn" i have been looking for a 51.4 piston and there the only game in town.
